Cot
Cot
[
z
]
gives the cotangent of
z
.
MORE INFORMATION
Mathematical function, suitable for both symbolic and numerical manipulation.
The argument of
Cot
is assumed to be in radians. (Multiply by
Degree
to convert from degrees.)
.
Cos
[
z
]/
Sin
[
z
]
is automatically converted to
Cot
[
z
]
.
TrigFactorList
[
expr
]
does decomposition.
For certain special arguments,
Cot
automatically evaluates to exact values.
Cot
can be evaluated to arbitrary numerical precision.
Cot
automatically threads over lists.
